I dont get it, anyone that can explain this one to me? I am completely out of the loop haha

It's a reference to an infamous 4 panel comic strip called "loss". It's one of them ancient memes from 2008. If I remember correctly, the story of the comic is that the dude rushes in to the hospital to find his pregnant wife had just lost their baby or something. If you dumb it down enough and reduce the characters to lines, you end up with

Yeah, if I'm not mistaken it became a meme because it was a strip that was released in a fairly popular humour comic and people found it weird because it had nothing to do with the tone of the rest of the comic
